Dalton Carabajal

Principal, C&C Asset Advisors, LLC

A decade-plus building real estate and construction in tandem — residential, investment, and commercial, from the ground up.

Dalton founded C&C to advise with the discernment of an operator, not the urgency of a salesperson. For over a decade he has worked real estate and construction in tandem — starting inside an investment and management company before branching off on his own. Licensed since 2019, he has worked every part of the business from the ground up: residential, investment, and commercial.

He previously owned and operated a residential general contracting business, and today manages active commercial construction across Dallas–Fort Worth — shell finishes, build-outs, and tenant interiors — coordinating directly with owners, brokers, and asset managers. That field-level command of how buildings actually get built informs every assignment the firm takes on.
